The game runs in a DOS emulator: keyboard and mouse work like on an old PC, each game has its own layout (see the hints in the game). There are no on-screen buttons on a phone.
First click the game screen once: after that the keys go to the game, not the page. To scroll the page again, click outside the game window. If the game does not respond, click the game screen again.
The game runs from the Internet Archive site in their emulator; there are no game files on our servers. We show it so you can get to know it; the rights to the game belong to the rights holders. The built-in player has no volume control: if there is no sound or you need to adjust it, open the game page on Internet Archive, which has sound and full-screen buttons.

The scenario encompasses the vast oceanic region between Norway and France, focusing on the evasion of British naval pursuit. The simulation utilizes two distinct layers. On the strategic map, navigation occurs across a grid where each square represents 70 miles and turns represent four-hour intervals. Success depends on managing fuel consumption, monitoring shifting weather zones, and utilizing reconnaissance from submarines and aircraft to locate the enemy. Tactical combat transitions to a specialized grid for surface engagements involving up to 12 vessels. Command involves manual targeting of gun batteries and torpedo tubes. The interface tracks damage to specific ship subdivisions; midship hits directly reduce a vessel's maximum speed. Information is conveyed through text logs and map ID symbols, maintaining a "fog of war" where enemy positions are only revealed through radar or visual detection.
